About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Open Label Study of ASP8374, an Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor, in Japanese Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the tolerability and safety profile and to characterize the pharmacokinetic profile of ASP8374 in Japanese patients with locally advanced (unresectable) or metastatic solid tumors.

This study also evaluates the anti-tumor effect of ASP8374.

Read the detailed description

This study consists of two arms (Arm A: ASP8374 dose A; and Arm B: ASP8374 dose B). Arm B would only be opened if Arm A is deemed tolerable.

The study consists of 2 periods: Screening (up to 28 days) and treatment period. The Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLT) observation period is set at the beginning of the treatment period. A subject can continue to participate in the study after the end of the DLT observation period until discontinuation criteria are met. After discontinuation of study drug treatment, all subjects will complete an end of treatment visit and safety follow-up visits.

Receives: Drug: ASP8374

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Safety and tolerability assessed by Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT)

    DLT is graded using National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events [NCI-CTCAE] Version 4.03. The DLT observation period may be increased if deemed appropriate by the Tolerability Evaluation Meeting.

    Measured: Up to 21 days

  2. Safety and tolerability assessed by adverse events (AEs)

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a subject administered a study drug, and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product whether or not considered related to the medicinal product.

    Measured: Up to 30 days after the last dose of study drug or until initiation of a new anti-cancer treatment, whichever comes first (a maximum of 109 weeks)

  3. Safety and tolerability assessed by immune-related AEs (irAEs)

    Most frequent immune-related AEs observed with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors include rash, oral mucositis, dry mouth, colitis/diarrhea, hepatitis, pneumonitis, and endocrinopathies .

    Measured: Up to 30 days after the last dose of study drug or until initiation of a new anti-cancer treatment, whichever comes first (a maximum of 109 weeks)

  4. Safety and tolerability assessed by serious adverse events (SAEs)

    An AE is considered "serious" if, in the view of either the investigator or sponsor, it results in any of the following outcomes: death, life-threatening, persistent or significant disability/incapacity or substantial disruption, congenital anomaly or birth defect, hospitalization, or medically important event

    Measured: Up to 90 days after the last dose of study drug or until initiation of a new anti-cancer treatment, whichever comes first (a maximum of 117 weeks)

  5. Number of participants with laboratory value abnormalities and/or adverse events related to treatment

    Number of patients with potentially clinically significant laboratory values.

    Measured: Up to 30 days after the last dose of study drug (a maximum of 109 weeks)

  6. Safety and tolerability assessed by 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG)

    ECGs should be obtained after the subject has rested quietly and is awake in a fully supine position (or semi-recumbent, if supine is not tolerated) for 10 minutes before the first ECG from a triplicate or single ECG. Any clinically significant adverse changes on the ECS will be reported as (serious) AEs.

    Measured: Up to end of treatment period (a maximum of 105 weeks)

  7. Number of participants with vital signs abnormalities and/or adverse events related to treatment

    Number of patients with potentially clinically significant vital sign values.

    Measured: Up to 90 days after the last dose of study drug (a maximum of 117 weeks)

  8. Number of participants with physical exam abnormalities and/or adverse events related to treatment

    Number of patients with potentially clinically significant physical exam values.

    Measured: Up to end of treatment period (a maximum of 105 weeks)

  9. Safety and tolerability assessed by eastern cooperative oncology group (ECOG) performance status

    The ECOG Scale [Oken, 1982] will be used to assess performance status ; 0=Fully active, able to carry on all predisease performance without restriction; 1=Restricted in physically strenuous activity, but ambulatory and able to carry out work of a light or sedentary nature, (e.g., light housework, office work); 2=Ambulatory and capable of all self-care, but unable to carry out any work activities. Up and about more than 50% of waking hours; 3=Capable of only limited self-care, confined to bed or chair more than 50% of waking hours; 4=Completely disabled. Cannot carry on any self-care. Totally confined to bed or chair.

    Measured: Up to 30 days after the last dose of study drug (a maximum of 109 weeks)

  10. Pharmacokinetics (PK) of ASP8374 in serum: AUClast

    AUClast: area under the concentration-time curve from the time of dosing up to the last measurable concentration. AUClast will be derived from the PK serum samples collected.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ASP8374 in people with Advanced Solid Tumors, run by Astellas Pharma Inc at 1 site in Japan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 18 inclusion and 17 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Nov 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Japan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety and tolerability assessed by Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) (time frame: Up to 21 days). The study lists 21 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Nov 2024.
